The Balkans yesterday, today and tomorrow

Balkan is an geographic area, a world of life where the century trends have brought the most tragic histories; it is an metaphor of permanent deconstruction, of disorders that have generated an terminological ignominy, balkanization, that targets misunderstandings, insecurity, ethnic and religious antagonisms , the partition tendencies as a consequence of exaggerated mythology and excommunicative for the other and conveyance, genocide, and cultural suicide etc. Another characteristic of inter-Balkan communication is subjectivity, from political level to scientific lecturing that in fact should be based on neutral exploration and evidence based. Starting from the principle that the science is a fight against the fraud, it is a prophylaxis and social insulin, thus a tool for prevention, minimization and elimination of social affliction. The Institute for Political and International Studies, in the eve of centennial of Balkan wars and 100 years of Albanian state, on 29-30 June 2012 organize an scientific conference including participants from different European states that through academic discourse, discussed the topic The Balkans yesterday, today and tomorrow .
